cluce Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 I currently have apache php and mysql installed on my computer. My website works fine on my localhost. How can I set this up so that other users on the same domain as me can view my website through their browser on theri machine. Or what would my web address? I have been struggling with these all week. I even tried IIS in Windows which works fine until someone tries to connect to the database when they logon I get a connection error. If there is way to use Apache with windows to host the website on an internal network I sure coiuld use some guidance on how to do that. Thanksss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apacheguy Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 If there is no firewall blocking communication with your internal computers, then all you need to do to access the site internally is type in the ip address of the computer. If there is a firewall then you need to open port 80 (assuming you have the default config in apache). ex. ip address of apache server is 192.168.0.100 type in "http://192.168.0.100" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason97673 Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 A very easy piece of software to get is Xampp. It is an apache, mysql server in one. Has MANY addons such as PHP, PEAR etc. All you have to do is click a setup file and everything is configured and working together properly. Well after you go through a very easy wizard that asks you what version of PHP you want etc then it will be setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
